Abstract: Methods and apparatus for delivering a variety of processing fluids onto a semiconductor wafer substrate with a multi-port nozzle. The nozzle is formed with plurality of longitudinal liquid manifolds and gas manifolds. Each manifold is positioned within the nozzle body so they are in fluid communication with a separate corresponding inlet formed in the body of the nozzle. Fluid inlets may be connected to external sources for receiving processing fluids to be dispensed. In addition, the nozzle includes a plurality of nozzle tips for directing dispensed liquids onto the wafer substrate. At least some portion of each tip extends beyond the bottom surface of the nozzle, and at the same time, at least some portion of the tip extends into a liquid manifold within the nozzle body to form an interior reservoir. Furthermore, the bottom nozzle surface includes a network of trenches formed in between the nozzle tips in a grid-like pattern and may further include a plurality of gas orifices therein. The gas orifices are connected to a gas manifold to receive pressurized gas thereby forming gas curtains which assist in controlling and directing the various processing fluids onto the wafer substrate with reduced cross-contamination and splashback from the wafer substrate.

Abstract: A composition for promoting coagulation of blood comprising a natural or synthetic RNA, or its fragments or analogs, e.g. peptide nucleic acids, ribozymes or RNA aptamers (collectively (A)), is new. Independent claims are also included for: (1) composition for promoting fibrinolysis or for inhibiting coagulation containing one or more agents (B) that degrade RNA or inhibitory compounds with RNase activity or RNA-complexing capacity; (2) diagnostic process for detecting post-operative hypercoagulative states, complication of pregnancy, tumor status, acute myocardial infarction or sepsis by detecting increased levels of plasma RNA, relative to healthy subjects; and (3) diagnostic agent, containing (A), for qualitative or quantitative determination of the blood coagulation factor VII-activating protein (FSAP) or its proenzyme. ACTIVITY : Antibacterial; Immunosuppressive; Hemostatic; Anticoagulant; Thrombolytic; Cerebroprotective. No biological data given. MECHANISM OF ACTION : Modulating the effects of RNA, released from injured tissue or cells, which is an important initial cofactor in the induction of both extrinsic and intrinsic coagulation pathways; specifically RNA binds to and activates the factor VII-activating protease (FASP). RNA from different sources was added to a turbidimetric coagulation test and the recalcification time (RT) measured. All types of RNA tested significantly reduced RT (no figures given), but pretreatment of RNA with RNase destroyed this effect.

Abstract: A linear system and an EER system are used in combination such that the EER system can also be used in a cellular phone with a wide output dynamic range. In the EER system, linear control of an amplifier (909) becomes difficult in the low output range. Thus, use of the EER system is limited to the high output range, and the linear system is used in the low output range as in the past. The power efficiency is improved while requirements of linearity are satisfied by this structure. An effective circuit structure is proposed for a switching control system for two systems. In addition, an up-converter (911) is constituted in combination with a step-down element (912) with high responsiveness, whereby a power supply voltage control circuit for the EER system with a wide control range and high responsiveness is provided. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A structure such as an electronically deformable mirror contains a deformable membrane, an array of actuators located facing the membrane, each actuator being arranged to actuate local displacement of the membrane perpendicular to its surface. The actuators and the membrane are connected via an array of actuating connections. The actuating connections substantially transmit movement perpendicular to the second surface, but leave planar displacement and/or local rotation of the second surface substantially free. Preferably, the actuators contain an array of soft magnetic islands on a soft magnetic base plane, with actuator coils running around the islands and a system of sort magnetic walls on the base plane to separate the coils. The walls support a soft magnetic resilient surface that extend over of the islands and serve to drive the actuating connections. Preferably the base plane is supported on an array of rod shaped connection elements, leaving space to permit air to circulate between the support structures and the support plate.
